#10 The Leger Family from Boundary Creek NB



This quilt piece came from Danny, Cindy, Connor, Brett and Isabella Leger. The Leger's adopted Isabella last January from China, her adoption story was one of the first that I followed. She and Mei Lin are the same age and Isabella's birthday is 3 days after Mei Lins.

Their wish to Mei Lin:

The Sun is your birthmother, who gave you life.
The Star is YOU, of course!
And the Heart is your mom's, your forever mom, who loves you, and cares for you, and makes a home with you.

I know adoption can be hard to understand, It can be a struggle to make sense of your feelings, but I believe your feelings and experiences will someday make you a strong and brave-hearted woman. You will also be the BEST of both your moms--Stars shine!

Thanks to the Leger family!
